A hard and crimpy start to Barking Crawdad

Great fun route with a small roof that is the crux.  There's a finger pocket that's a savior if found.  A long reach is helpful to get through this (or faith in your feet).

Pull the prominent roof on crimps, then up pockets to a rap anchor.

This route starts in the same place as Superfly but moves up the arete to a bulge move up high at the crux.  Excellent route; guide pamphlet for the area says 10c but we felt is was much closer to 10a.  Fantastic climb at the bulge up high!

Shares a bolt or 2 with Moucha then follows bolts to the left. 8 bolts + anchors

Pretty dang good route with way mellow climbing down low followed up with a very fun crux move by the last bolt.  A must do if at the Fly Trap.

Hopscotch is a fitting name as the crux requires an intricate smearing footwork sequence. This route requires some demanding jams and technique to complete. Pulling over the roof at the top is stiff, until you figure out a sequence that works for you. I have seen 'good' climbers drop F-bombs like WWII after climbing the entire route only to fall a few feet from the anchors above the roof.

Route is probably a bit easier than 5.7 other than maybe one move between the 2nd and 3rd clip.  Good warm up, just beware of the hordes of onlookers from the pool.

Shares start with Lagoon, then veers left.

Good warm up.  Starts with big holds then thins out, then gets big again.

long moves through thin edges, pockets and a bulge

Shares start with The Deck Attraction, then up and right on the arete.

Steep and reachy chimping, easier ground above.

Make your way over a small roof to an easy slab.  After the slab there is a slightly overhanging pocketed face to the top.

Blocky climbing leads to a reachy crux into a nice layback corner on sharp rock.  Different climbing than other routes in Veyo.

The crux might be depending on whether the mini waterfall is running; easy if not; probably 5.8 if running as your holds will be soaked and slick for the weird mantle move.  Above the water the route is as good as they get at this grade and well protected; good beginner route!

Funky start with a delicate move or two leads to easy climbing to a crack.  Weird bolting will take you left of the crack to the anchors.  Not much feet at the top, but great hand holds.  The crux is at the beginning.
